(Apr. 7, 2025) — “Math is hard, let’s go shopping” – Teen Talk Barbie
Barbies and Kens from across America came out in full force this weekend, openly displaying their ignorance of the economic tidal wave hurtling towards America. Our sleepy berg of Prescott, Arizona, located in the middle of the Republican stronghold of Yavapai County, was no exception and was Bombarded by BarbiesTM yelling swear words and a-carrying signs. It was reported that upwards of a thousand anti-Nazi Nazis attended, demonstrating a weird but abject hatred of President Trump and his Robin, Elon Musk. Grown men stood by themselves yelling the same tropes on the corner to no one listening. What was surprising was how many Grandma and Grandpa Barbies were there and screaming epithets. It was embarrassing but illuminating as they didn’t appear to hail from Prescott. There was the sound of Birkenstock stomping around the Prescott Courthouse Square.
For exactly one hour.
Within fifteen minutes, the Square was absolutely empty of The FuriousTM. It felt as if they had been paid Soros bucks for only one hour and the meter expired. They disappeared without a trace and did not bring any economic activity to the surrounding Prescott stores and restaurants who needed their business. The only people who remained were Trump supporters flying flags and dog walkers. The dogs seemed to be into protesting kitty cats.
The Great “Hands Off” protest probably created more supporters of President Trump, as no one wants these crazies gaining power. Their feeble protest was reminiscent of the Vietnam War protests of yore when one of the goals of the male protesters was to pick up girls by demonstrating nothing more than that they were “Right On!”
The question must be asked: “What are they demonstrating against?” They really had no cogent answer. Their former god, Elon Musk, had fallen to be the facilitator of the Great Satan. They have fallen in love with the accused murderer Luigi, not of Mario Brothers fame. Their virulent antisemitism has vomited out of their throats with their support of Hamas, which represents nothing but the murder of civilization as well as millions of humans should they get their way. To facilitate this destruction, either through abject ignorance or deliberate hatred of America, they were demonstrating for the economic destruction of America.
Congressman David Schweikert (R-AZ-01) said it best as he recently testified to the Arizona House, “This place has become a clown show of math…in the face of three unassailable facts: debt, deficits and demographics.” America has been bankrupting itself for decades through the malfeasance of Democrat politicians led by Biden, Pelosi, Schumer and Obama. Trillions of dollars have flowed to NGOs as well as a plethora of questionable “programs” and bloated bureaucracies, where money illegally flows back to these corrupt politicians to transform America into a Socialist, read “Communist,” Paradise. Most high-level fossilized Republicans in power share in this complicity.
It is three minutes to midnight. President Trump and his wonderful cabinet are trying to save America before it is too late. Elon Musk is simply uncovering the termites burrowing inside our foundation as he has no real power. Anyone who has studied history knows that the USSR dissolved itself in 1991 because it went bankrupt with “only” $530 billion of debt. America is on that same highway with a $36.2 trillion (and growing) debt. We can choose a death of a thousand cuts or take action now to stabilize the debt while growing the economy. President Trump chooses the latter.
The Bureaucracy is the unConstitutional Fourth Branch of government where Congress has abrogated its responsibility since before President Woodrow Wilson. It must be pared back and many powers relegated back to the States as the Tenth Amendment commands. Bureaucrats who refuse to return to work cry crocodile tears as they lose their jobs. Most have probably never worked in the private sector where layoffs are common for the restoration of economic solvency. Tariffs are another Yuge topic and will be left for a future article.
These are times of turmoil but our President Trump has a business plan, not an emotional outcry, to restore America’s greatness. Let’s look forward to a March full of Bondi and Trump Barbies.


Excellent! So well said and for those of us who remember Viet Nam and the protests, it brought back memories. Unfortunately no good memories. Keep it iup!
Great perspectives. I was surprised they were only there for an hour. Thanks for sharing.
Made me smile and weep at the same time. Thanks for your insightful and humorous writing Tom. I enjoy each one. GB
